4. And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
5. The Lord shall be exalted; he who dwells on the heights: for he has filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
6. And in thy times wisdom and knowledge, and the strength of salvation shall reign: the fear of the Lord shall be his treasure.
7. Behold, their ambassadors shall cry without: the messengers of peace shall weep bitterly.
8. The highways shall be broken down; the travellers shall cease; he has broken the covenant; he has despised the cities; he does not regard man.
9. The earth mourns and languishes: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel were shaken.
10. Now I will rise up, saith the Lord; now I will be exalted; now I will be lifted up.
11. Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
12. And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up they shall be burned in the fire.
13. Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might.
14. The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness has surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with eternal flames?
